Capture Credit Card Transaction

Captures a previously preauthorized credit card transaction. This completes the payment process by transferring the held funds. This is typically used after a preauthorization when the final transaction amount is known and the merchant is ready to capture the funds.

Use Case 1: $0 Preauthorization (No Capture)

If a $0 preauthorization is performed, it is used to validate the credit card and check whether the card is valid and active. No amount is blocked on the card. Since no money is preauthorized, capture is not required. For example, you want to verify a card before saving it for future payments.

Use Case 2: Amount Preauthorization (Capture Later)

If a preauthorization is performed for an amount greater than $0, the specified amount is blocked on the customer's credit card. The amount is captured later when the transaction is finalized. This is useful when the final charge happens after some time.
